    Kilted Antique Doll


    Spotted in an auction sale room in Jedburgh, this kilt wearing vintage doll.
    I think the tartan is Sinclair Hunting, our experts may be able to confirm this.

    Nice find, Alex. It looks to be in great shape. Were you able to determine how old the doll is?

    No, I was in Jedburgh too early in the day for the premises to be open. This was spotted in their window display.

    Looks like it should be in one of those movies where it comes to life and hacks you to pieces with a sgian dubh.

    sorry...not a fan of dolls.

    Pity. That looks to be a very well preserved doll.
